“To the moon” Nice little point and click adventure. I played it through one afternoon and was sad for the following two days.
I've cried a few times in my life at games. This is the only one that had me outright sobbing.
My wife played this through one evening, I thought i'd done something wrong for the next week.
I convinced my partner to play it recently and the way I knew she'd finished it was that I could hear sniffling from the desk behind me.
I’m a pretty emotional dude. I tear up at a lot of things, happy and sad. But, there are very few things in this life that have caused me to totally break down, ugly crying. The ending to “To the Moon” is one of them. Too visceral a reminder of saying goodbye to people I’ve loved very much.
Oh yea, that one had me almost full on sobbing.
